Re: Pacers/Bucks Postgame Thread 11/15/13

In an 82 game season let downs are bound to happen. Easy wins on paper are bound to turn to loses from time to time, and I keep waiting for one of those moments to sneak up on our Pacers, but wow our business like approach so far this season has been impeccable. We just continue to grind out opponents it is almost like we are great boxers that just throw body blow after body blow, and by the time the 3rd and 4th quarters come around our opponents just have no more will to win and Pacers throw the haymaker in the 2nd half and pull out easy wins it is a thing of beauty.

Ignoring Paul and Lance's immense growth from last year. Compare Scola to Tyler. Compare CJ to DJ. The difference is BOTH starters and bench and the bench might have taken an even bigger jump. We get Granger back and it's just not gonna be fair...

What was the big deal wiht Lance? Vogel Sat him almost the the entire 2nd qtr, and then his Mojo was gone for the rest of the game.
All the guy did was bump into OJ Mayo on the way back to the bench on a time out. Is there something I missed? Chris and Quinn made big deal about it. Dick Bevetta was consoling Lance during a time out. What gives?

That wasn't the first incident, and Lance's mojo was already on its way out he was letting his emotions get the best of him and it was affecting his play. Also I am pretty sure Lance got most of his minutes in the second quarter.

Like I said I might have missed something, I just seen the bump, and then Lance was sitting and pouting, and I didn't see him until the 3rd.

Yeah, you did. There were several other testy exchanges between the two of them (and they have a history going back to middle school) and then Lance had a couple of possessions where he went into "I'm gonna show him," one on one mode, where he bricked the shots to boot. He needed a little cooling off time. I was a little disappointed that he seemed to pout so much in response, but he's an emotional guy, it's bound to happen from time to time.

No big deal unless the pouting seems to carry over into the next game.

Re: Pacers/Bucks Postgame Thread 11/15/13

After watching the video, it all makes sense. Lance considers Mayo to be that mountain he has to climb. However, he needs to do it, he needs to beat OJ Mayo. I hope today was a big day of maturation for Lance.

Was Paul perfect from mid-range tonight? What a huge improvement in his game. That shot elevates him to superstar.

7 for 8 I believe. Just lethal. His three's a bit off. If he's going to continuously take 4+ a game I'd like at least two to be from the short porch in the corner. And no foul shots, which is a rarity this season. But there was really no need to be that aggressive in this game with Roy making grown men cry in the paint.
